In gratitude

1. When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be. Patanjali (c. 1st to 3rd century BC) No matter what accomplishments you achieve, somebody helped you. Althea Gibson Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. Kindness trumps greed: it asks for sharing. Kindness trumps fear: it calls forth gratefulness and love. Kindness trumps even stupidity, for with sharing and love, one learns. Marc Estrin It seems to me that we often, almost sulkily reject the good that God offers us because at that moment, we expected some other good. C.S. Lewis In gratitude Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. Denis Waitley Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. William Jennings Bryan Wishing you a healthy and joyous New Year!!! Celebrate what you want want to see more of. Tom Peters
